Thanks Bruce and Tim - I need to put a secondary TT earth at my garage/
workshop and was a bit gobsmacked about the cable size Andy Wade
mentioned. My house TT earth was installed by the local board aver 30
years and in all likelihoods needs inspection and probable upgrading -
note to self must do this !!
